this PRE-CHA stuff is soooooooo fun!

Caroline showed the new Classic Label coaster yesterday...

Here's the cover of my booth sample...
this is a fun size...about 3 1/2 x 4 1/2..



And I'm still LOVIN' the minis...
sounds like you guys do too!

Here's the top of the 2 page spread it's in another album...
the bottom is shown in yesterday's post...

More FATE...

Shopping tip...if you LOVE the minis...

Grab some of tim's hitch fasteners...
They are PERFECT to hang a Maya Road hanger...



I LOVE it when things just...fit!

Shirley said...

All this time I have been following your blog and did not realize you lived in Ill. I always thought you were located close to Tim for some reason. I am in MO, so maybe it won't be so hard to catch one of your classes close to home some time.

C. Sage Deerborn said...

Loving everything I see.

Jeanne said...

Say, Wendy...did you ever get your birthday cabinet home? Did I miss the photo(s)?

Julie said...

Check out the Maya Road Blog site!! A lot of great projects to see and I especially like the new Maya Resist. Like the site says, "Maya Resist is a pretty darn cool product." Can't wait to try that product out.
